Promote Learning and Skills for Young People and Adults

A) This goal places the emphasis on the learning needs of

young people and adults in the context of lifelong learning．It

calls for fair access to learning programs that are appropriate，and mentions life skills particularly．

B)Education is about giving people the opportunity to

develop their potential，their personality and their

strengths．This does not merely mean learning new knowledge，but also developing abilities to make the most of life．These are

called life skills——including the inner capacities and the

practical skills we need．

C)Many of the inner capacities——often known as psych0—social skills——cannot be taught as subjects．They are not the

same as academic or technical learnin9．They must rather be

modeled and promoted as part of learning，and in particular by

teachers．These skills have to do with the way we behave—towards other people，towards ourselves，towards the

challenges and problems of life．

They include skills in communicating，in making decisions

and solving problems，in negotiating and expressing ourselves，in thinking critically and understanding our feelings．

D)More practical life skills are the kinds of manual skills we

need for the physical tasks we face．Some would include

vocational skills under the heading of life skills——the ability to

lay bricks．sew clothes，catch fish or repair a motorbike．These

are skills by which people may earn their livelihood and which are often available to young people leaving school．In fact，very

often young people learn psycho-social skills as they learn more

practical skills．Learning vocational skills can be a strategy for

acquiring both practical and psycho-social skills．

E)We need to increase our life skills at every stage of life，so

learning them may be part of early child—hood education．of

primary and secondary education and of adult learning

groups．Life skills can be put into the categories that the Jacques

Delors report suggested；it spoke of four pillars of education，which correspond to certain kinds of life skills—Learning to know：Thinking abilities：such as problem—solving，critical thinking，decision making，understanding consequences．Learning to be：

Personal abilities：such as managing stress and feelings，self-awareness，self-confidence．Learning to live together：Social

abilities：such as communication，negotiation，teamwork．Learning to do： Manual skills：practicing know-how required for work and tasks．

F)In today’s world all these skills are necessary, in order to

face rapid change in society．This means that it is important to

know how to go on learning as we require new skills for life and

work．In addition，we need to know how to cope with the flood

of information and turn it in to useful knowledge．We also need

to learn how to handle change in society and in our own lives．

G)Life skills are both concrete and abstract—practical skills

can be learned directly, as a subject．For example, a learner can

take a course in laying bricks and learn that skill．Other life skills，such as self-confidence，self-esteem，and skills for relating to

others or thinking critically cannot be taught in such direct

ways．They should be part of any learning process，where

teachers or instructors are concerned that learners should not just learn about subjects，but learn how to cope with life and

make the most of their potential．

H)So these life skills may be learnt when learning other

things．For example：Learning literacy may have a big impact

on self-esteem，on critical thinking or on communication skills；Learning practical skills s ach as drivin9，healthcare or tailoring

may increase self-confidence，teach problem—solving processes or help in understanding consequences．

I) Whether this is true depends on the way of teachin9—what

kinds of thinkin9，relationship building and communication the

teacher or facilitator models themselves and promotes among

the learners．

It would require measuring the individual and collective

progress in making the most of learning and of life，or assessing

how far human potential is being realized，or estimating how

well people cope with change．It is easier to measure the

development of practical skills，for instance by counting the

number of students who register for vocational skills

courses．However, this still may not tell us how effectively these

skills are being used．

J)The psych0．social skills cannot easily be measured by

tests and scores，but become visible

in Chang behavior．Progress in this area has often been noted

by teachers on reports which they make to the parents of their
